Explain the Pretty In Pig concept to anyone inquiring (every penny counts when it comes to ending breast cancer forever!)

For larger events, Ambassadors may ‘walk the crowds’ with small piggy banks to help facilitate donations, however you will not be asked to do any ‘hard selling’ for contributions

You will not be required to empty the bank, count or collect money

Impact

In these financial times, it’s important for everyone to understand you don’t have to “give big” to advance the progress of the breast cancer movement. As a Pretty in Pig Ambassador, you will be embracing everyone in the knowledge that they can make a difference… that every penny counts when it comes to saving lives. In this way, not only will you be helping raise funds to create a world without breast cancer, but you will be inspiring men, women-and children-to believe in the power that is in their hands… and in the hope that that world can become reality in the very near future.

By the numbers… if you attend an event and encourage just 100 people to place one $5 bill, that’s enough to potentially fund five mammograms for women in need though the Komen Philadelphia Community Grants Program. Now that’s impact!

Ours is a Bold Goal.

Nationwide, Komen will drastically reduce the breast cancer mortality rate in the next decade. Here at home, Komen Philadelphia focuses on reducing the number of late-stage breast cancer diagnoses in our community while continuing to provide the education, resources, access to services, survivor support and research funding that have grown the size of the local survivor family over the past 25 years.
